The therapists, are very nice, friendly, knowledgeable, and encouraging. Their assistants and the office staff are equally as nice and friendly. The facility is clean and spacious. All this together makes for a very pleasant rehab experience!
The folks at TexPTS are caring, thoughtful, and very professional. They truly care about your injury and want you to get better! I would recommend them highly to anyone in need of physical therapy!
I have had a great experience with everyone at Texas Physical Therapy Specialists. Such a friendly, laid back, and encouraging environment. They are on top of their game, and you can tell by the way they greet patients, work with them, and manage their team.
The therapy I have received at Texas Physical Therapy Specialists is first rate in every regard. The entire team is extremely knowledgeable, thorough, and compassionate. I have already made significant improvement in just three weeks.
Courteous staff, excellent PTs, flexible scheduling. I highly recommend TexPTS. Excellent outcome with my shoulder therapy. Injuries happen; when anyone in my family needs a PT in the future, they’re headed to TexPTS!
Buck asks insightful questions and is a good listener. I feel we have established a clear picture of the issues, and continue to update this as the treatment evolves. Buck has assigned PT exercises which I see as insightful and get right to the core of the issues.
Even when there is not a pandemic, I think I would choose to do telehealth physical therapy because I’ve gotten great results in less time with a more flexible schedule. The ease of telehealth took away my excuses for not attending, which was half the battle.
Services and Treatments
Texas Physical Therapy Specialists: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Great folks doing a great job. After an injury that left my surgeon telling me I wouldn't get back to 100%, I think we just may prove him wrong. Physical therapy I haven't dreaded going to, for a change.
Fantastic experience: I'm currently still in Physical Therapy. The Receptionist are very nice and welcoming. Professional staff! My therapist is the greatest and cares about my recovery.
Fantastic experience: My dad has seizures and had a horrible fall. After fighting with doctors and insurance for a couple of months, we got our referral here- and it was certainly worth the wait. The staff is so friendly and work with our crazy schedule. My dad has aphasia wich makes it hard for him to communicate with others and they have made every effort to make him feel comfortable and capable- which is the best part for me. They are very knowledgeable and my dad started feeling better after the very first visit, saying he was ready to go for a run- after months of not being able to walk for more than five minutes. The front desk staff is amazing and so incredibly helpful. They are also so great with my crazy little girl who has to tag along with us to all grandpa's appointments. I am beyond happy with this place and would recommend to anybody.
Fantastic experience: Being at Texas Physical Therapy has really been helpful for my pain and discomfort.they have amazingly good therapist that knows and do their jobs very well,they are very friendly,have tremendous respect for everyone that come for their service,counter service is very good and friendly with a smile.
Fantastic experience: Paige is the best physical therapist, I’m so lucky to have had her guidance, encouragement and care. Shanice makes everything run so smoothly her kindness and patience was much appreciated.
Fantastic experience: “Dr Paige” is the best ! Love her laughter and her personal touch ! Made my therapy enjoyable
Fantastic experience: Working with the talented professionals at Texas Physical Therapy Specialists was a fantastic experience. Stephanie was patent, asked great questions, and was persistent about getting to the root cause of my issues. The environment is positive, encouraging, and energetic. Thanks to the whole staff at Central Park TexPTS!!
Fantastic experience: I worked with PT Kyle Hill for several months after injuring my arm/shoulder and he was extremely knowledgeable, diligent and helpful throughout my entire rehab process. He was always prepared and committed to each session, ensuring I was progressing according to schedule. I also appreciated his quick-wittedness and humor during some of the tougher sessions. Due to Kyle's help, I was able to finish my therapy several weeks ahead of schedule and continue to play sports and function without any limitation. I highly recommend Kyle and the rest of the Bailey Square team!
Fantastic experience: My therapist, Dr. Kyle Hill, was great. He worked diligently to improve my back and ankle problems. At my age, I'm very happy to be "almost as good as new"! The entire staff was wonderful as well.
Fantastic experience: I've been working with Texas Physical Therapy Specialists for 10+ years at this point and have only had excellent results. They have an amazing staff who are knowledgeable and very attentive to their clients needs. Most recently I've been working with Sam, one of their newer therapists, and it has once again proved to be an excellent experience - from my initial consult through my recent sessions, he was able to diagnose my issue and get me back on track and participating in the active lifestyle essential to me. I would highly recommend TPTS to anyone in need of specialized and targeted physical therapy!
Fantastic experience: I had a wonderful experience here. The techs Emily and Henry are totally on top of things, attentive, and kind. Cleaning procedures and check-in process felt very covid-safe. And Drs Lauren and Stephanie are incredible. I always felt heard here, thank you so much.
Fantastic experience: I had some doubts about the benefits of physical therapy, but I was lucky enough to get Stephanie as my PT. She was very professional and fun ♂️, helped me to get back to normal quickly! Can’t thank her enough!
Fantastic experience: Proud to have graduated from Texas physical therapy, Bee Cave! Alyssa was AWESOME, she created a rehab program for my specific needs and she and her staff helped me overcome the pain I was experiencing. The clinic, the staff and the other patients made it a peaceful and super cool place to be! Noodles was an amazing compliment to the staff, my kids loved being there and they didn’t want to leave! If had to go anywhere, I’d 110% go back to PTS Bee Cave! Thanks y’all for providing a great place for the injured to visit!
Fantastic experience: I had a great experience here, visiting a dozen times in November and December. The staff were all very friendly and knowledgeable, and I always felt cared for - I also got the recovery I hoped for!
Fantastic experience: I dislocated my knee over a year ago but never went to physical therapy. Although it was mostly fine, i could tell things were off (deep squats caused pain). Dr. Kelsey Birk was so great to work with and helped me reduce the pain in my knee. Now, squatting causes me no issues, and I'm on my way to regaining significant strength in my quads and glutes!!
Fantastic experience: I graduated from physical therapy! All thanks to Dr. Kelsey Birk! Kelsey was great! Kelsey and the entire staff made me feel so comfortable. They challenged me and encouraged me throughout the entire process. It was bitter sweet leaving this past Monday. I felt like I was leaving a group of friends. But I feel prepared and ready to start training for my next half marathon. Thanks, Kelsey! Couldn't have done it without you.
Fantastic experience: I had a great experience at Texas Physical Therapy Specialists with my PT, Stephanie! Stephanie worked with me through two injuries, by evaluating the pain, listening to my concerns, planning a recovery, and working with me through various exercises. Because of her, I recovered faster than I would've otherwise, learned how to prevent further injury, and was able to get back to being myself. Plus, I had a lot of fun doing it! Choosing to work through my injuries with Texas Physical Therapy Specialists was one of my better decisions of 202 and I'll almost miss going in early mornings twice a week.
Fantastic experience: I have been to several physical therapy groups in the past and Texas Physical Therapy Specialists surpasses them all. Dr. Cara serves patients with absolute excellence. I appreciate her compassionate approach and mastery of anatomy and physiology with respect to my specific spinal issues. I underwent neck surgery which was really difficult to recover from. The front desk staff and assistants are also top-notch and professional. I will really miss everyone there. It's also really clean. Highest recommendation.
Fantastic experience: I came here to continue my therapy for my ACL surgery rehab, and Tibin and the team were a great help to me. Unfortunately I had to leave earlier than planned due to COVID-19, however I could definitely see the results and am very thankful for all the help they provided me!
Fantastic experience: Just finished rehabbing my knee at the central location of Texas Physical therapy specialists. If you have an injury that needs PT, there isn't a better place to get it fixed in Austin. The entire staff is professional, helpful and full of knowledge, but the shining star is definitely Dr. Cara Pineau. She helped me get stronger while the knee healed and explained the merits of every exercise I did during rehab. Two months later, I'm working out again more than I have in 10 years. I can't thank her enough. I highly recommend this place.
Fantastic experience: I can't say enough good things about this place and these people. Jamie Soto was my therapist after a terrible infection of my knee replacement, which led to several surgeries and a total knee replacement revision.I wondered if I would ever walk my dogs again. Jamie is a total professional who really knows what to do and how fast to bring you along without undue pain. Everyone who works here contributes to a pleasant experience. I felt safe from Covid-19 here, even at 79 years old, because they are well set up and follow the guidelines rigorously. They put the spring back in my step!
Fantastic experience: I have been going to Texas Physical Therapy Specialists for about 6 wks. for my left arm for an injury from a fall. I highly recommend my wonderful Therapist, Dr. Cara Pineau, PT DPT and her all her staff especially her assistant Ian. She worked on my arm and was so caring and professional at what she does. I will follow all the home program exercises given to me. I felt safe even with Pandemic, they made sure everything was sanitized and clean. I finally finished my therapy yesterday with no pain and can do everything I could not do. Thank You, Cara and Ian for making me feel 100%. I will refer TEXPTS. to all my friends and relatives.
Fantastic experience: I've used three or four different PT offices for various injuries over the years, but I have to say the folks at TexPTS are the best of any I've visited. They all are willing to answer questions and really get to know you on a personal level about your goals. I've worked with Dr. Prince the most and he was as excited as I was about reaching each milestone in my recovery. Hopefully I won't have to go to PT again any time soon, but if I do then I know where I'm going.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely the best people here! They are always so kind and truly listen to you when you tell them about your issues. I am in the process of being diagnosed with Ehlers Danlose and I’ve had many doctors be extremely dismissive or not even believe me when I’ve told them my issues, but Kelsey has been incredibly attentive and took me and my health seriously from the start.
Fantastic experience: I was treated by Dr. Jamie Sato at the Central Austin clinic. She is very knowledgeable and helpful. My results were great and I have no hesitation in highly recommending her.
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend TPTS and especially Dr. Kelsey Birk! I walked in 4 months ago in so much pain I couldn't sleep or do any of the things I love to do. I walked out this week with no pain! The facility is clean (important during a pandemic) and the staff are incredibly organized, positive and competent. Best place ever. Thank you all!
Fantastic experience: A thorough and professional group of therapists and staff. All are charming and excellent at their profession. Jamie and Leslie were my inspiration to recover my injured shoulder and start to play tennis again. Many thanks !!
Fantastic experience: Simple put, TexPTS was great! I visited them for about 2 months after breaking my wrist and had a good experience throughout. I primarily saw Tibin for PT but everyone I had contact with was really nice and very helpful. Even during the current pandemic, they were able to implement safety measures to keep everyone safe and continue therapy for all who needed it. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone searching for Physical Therapist.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Lauren Stiles and staff are great. Love the positivity and almost all PTs there have PhDs. They are amazing at what they do. They healed my neck and are now healing my foot.
Fantastic experience: after my big injury I was very hard from to run or set down correctly so my doctor he referral me to Tx physical therapy Dr kelsey Birk she was my PT and her assistant Micah the are reall wonderful people and great experiences I wanna thanks them alot for hellp me out with my injury and the hellp me alot with my get straight back so thank you you alot for great work I miss you guys
Fantastic experience: I've been working closely with Dr. Jamie Sato, Charles and Ian for about the last two months for a recurring rotator cuff issue. It was keeping me up at night and prevented my mobility. They've been very helpful and informative on all aspects of my recovery - pain mitigation, finding a safe range of motion, and most importantly, keeping fit while I'm recovering. There's a tremendous amount of knowledge and support there. I graduated on Monday and am ecstatic about the improvements to my shoulder and overall fitness. It's been a terrific experience and if I get myself dinged up again (knock wood), they are my first pick for therapy. If you are disciplined about doing the exercises you can recover.
Fantastic experience: I have recently had a very good experience with this company and with Dr Tibin Prince in particular. Dr Prince was attentive, curious, and deliberate in both his evaluation and plan of care. He carefully monitored my progress and adjusted what needed to be addressed as we went along. I did indeed get better, thanks to his care and applied knowledge on my behalf. The entire staff of TPTS was pleasant, knowledgeable, and accommodating. I recommend this company, and Dr Prince, very highly!
Fantastic experience: After a knee injury I saw Kelsey (Dr. Birk) to get it rehabbed. Had a great experience with both the practice (it's a well-run office) and Kelsey. She was a good listener, was very friendly, and definitely knew what she was doing. She followed up on the in-home exercises and gave feedback, and suggested "graduation" when it was time (including a pretty through evaluation to confirm that I was ready). I'll definitely come here again the next time I need P.T. (because there's definitely going to be a next time).
Fantastic experience: I am been going the therapy for almost 4 months now after a severe ankle injury. This place has become a second home to me. Everyone is super friendly and welcoming. The place is very clean and organized. My physical therapist Alyssa is very supportive and has pushed me harder then I could think I could do. Everyone here trys to get to know you on a personal level rather then just a patient. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who needs physical therapy. As a future provider myself, I will recommend my patients to come to this facility.
Fantastic experience: I can’t recommend these guys enough. Dr. Reese and the rest of the staff took very good care of me and helped me get my rotator cuff back in working order. The PT room is a fun and easy going environment, and the front desk ladies are very nice.
Fantastic experience: After suffering with back pain for many years, I have finally found relief and hope. Kelsey Birk did a very thorough assessment of my condition and concerns and really listened. I worked with Micah Rapisand twice and was ecstatic to find that I already have less pain, understand my problem for the first time, and can see a path forward for improvement. So happy!
Fantastic experience: I came to this location with widespread tendinopathy and worked with Kelsey and Micah. 3 months later, I'm back to working out and on the road to getting my normal life back. The staff here are so friendly and more importantly they listen. You're in good hands if you come here.
Fantastic experience: This is the place to go if you need physical therapy! I have gone there twice for different problems.There are several therapists on duty who can work with you, but I really appreciate Kelsey Birk and Micah Rapisand for helping me with the right exercises and stretches for my neck and shoulders. The front desk staff are great, very friendly, and easy to work with. I want to thank Bianca especially for her special smile and remembering me from my previous therapy there.
Fantastic experience: I've gone here for four months after dislocating my shoulder. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Prince and the entire staff at this office. They are truly first class and my shoulder has improved dramatically.
Fantastic experience: I am currently having a great experience here. My neurosurgeon highly recommended Dr. Jamie Reese and I can't thank him enough. I've been doing one form of PT or another for 20+ years. I've been blessed with an excellent postural restoration clinic, and forced to endure the formulaic "we want you here 3x a week, here are more exercises" clinics. TPTS is a breath of fresh air. I'm very impressed with the routine they have me on and I appreciate the way they advance my exercises when I've mastered the basics. I think I'm well on my way to retraining my abs so they do the right jobs, and gaining core strength that is better than pre-surgery. Dr. Reese is excellent! She quickly gained my trust, which is essential when someone has to work on an abdominal scar to free it up. She is warm and very easy to talk to. She gives you confidence that you *can* get through the process. She also breaks it down so it doesn't seem so overwhelming. I would highly recommend her and her staff. Everyone there is super nice and accommodating. The front desk staff is very helpful (and patient) with scheduling. I've seen a high level of respect and compassion for all of their patients, no matter what age or ability.
Fantastic experience: In 2017 I had total knee replacement on both knees, one in February and the other in August. I received my outpatient PT from Dr. Oksana Silva and the team at Texas Physical Therapy Specialists. Today I am happy to say that I am walking perfectly, with no pain and am able to do more than I have in years. This is due to Dr. Silva and her team...they pushed me when I needed to be pushed, challenged me, supported me, and helped me have the courage to do anything. And in the end, they weren't just a doctor and her team, they were friends. I highly recommend them for your PT needs!
Fantastic experience: About a year ago, I tore my ACL, MCL, menisucus, and bruised my femur in a rock climbing accident. Texas PTS was the supportive and positive environment I needed to stay committed to my recovery and motivated towards returning to my goals as a collegiate athlete. My PT, Dr. Silva, the technicians, and the rest of the Texas PTS team were always very friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive. Going to PT for the first time was an overwhelming experience, but I felt involved in the process and felt reassured that my treatment plan would work for me as a college student. Now I'm back to climbing and competing with my team again!
Fantastic experience: Amazing team! I had issues with my knee and this team of expert have helped me tremendously. I don't have pain anymore :) I'm back at the gym and I'm feeling wonderful. Dr. Oksana was so attentive, professional and fun. It made all the difference in the world. David is also a great provider and give amazing pressure massages. The whole staff is really good at what they do. Can't recommend them highly enough! High five team!
Fantastic experience: I have been going to Texas Physical Therapy Specialist for about 4 weeks for symptoms of Plantar Fasciitis and have received excellent care. Dr. Oksana Silva is very sweet and smart. I came in with severe heel pain and now it is pretty much non existent. Today is going to be my last session and I am going to miss coming in to all these smiling, happy, helpful, and really smart professional people. Thanks everyone!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Silva and the staff were incredibly professional, kind, flexible, and crucial to my healing after my third knee dislocation. I cannot thank them enough for helping me strengthen my knee. Dr. Silva patiently explained the purpose and need of every exercise at every session; at my first appointment she went above and beyond to comfort me and make me feel like a full recovery was possible with hard work, time, and effort. Her dedication and passion for her patients is second to none. I have gone through physical therapy twice before, and I can say with confidence that this is the best experience I have had with my recovery. As a full time student my schedule was often difficult, but the staff was more than willing to accommodate. The facility is sanitary, and the space is very professional. I highly recommend Dr. Silva and everyone at Texas PTS at this location!
Fantastic experience: I picked this place out as I had surgery and needed therapy. I've had many surgeries and many different Therapies this is by far the most best therapist place that I've ever been and I'm not just saying that the people act like they care and they stay with you the whole time you are there for therapy. I for sure give it 5 stars !!!!!! And the one that I went to was the one on Cypress Creek Road in Cedar Park. !!!!!!!
Fantastic experience: This is the best PT place in Austin! The Physical Therapists know more than anybody else I've ever used in the past. Every person is dedicated to helping you get better. I love my PT!
Fantastic experience: I had PT here for my knee replacement and my back. I had previously been in PT at other facilities for my back but never received the care and help that I received at Texas PT Specialists. I now believe after years of back pain that I will be able to walk without pain and without a cane. I felt like I was with family every session. All the therapists are amazing and the aides encouraging and very very knowledgable. A huge thank you to Texas Physical Therapy Specialists!
Fantastic experience: I had a minor issue with lower back and piriformis muscle. Dr. Finkelstein and the other staff identified the problem and recommended various stretches and other therapies. My symptoms resolved after only four sessions. I am very pleased with the results.
Fantastic experience: I want to start with the high quality of service that this team provided since the moment that you walk in the office until you go home and even on phone conversations. They make you feel that you really matter for them. I visited other physical therapy offices before and I never experience the level of detail and service that they provided to me. My Physical Therapist is Lauren Brandt, she really goes in high detail with you, trying to pin point the issue and root cause it, she is very professional and spent good time with you applying her treatment techniques. They are very flexible with the appointment schedules and plenty parking lot, never had an issue parking there and that it is a big plus in Austin. I highly recommend this specific office for your treatment.
